Glass for Europe hosted its 2nd internal workshop of 2023 for national associations: Logistics of racks and stillages

Participants discussed the challenges and opportunities of developing schemes to manage the movements of glass racks, confirming that the issue is a shared concern in the flat glass value-chain.

UDTPV, the French association of flat glass transformers and processors, and Glas Branche Organisatie GBO, which gathers Dutch companies operating in the production, marketing, processing and installation of flat glass, presented their national cases and the projects undertaken to assist their members in finding a common solutions for the administration of stillages and to create a harmonised set of regulations.

The workshop also hosted the company Gestellpool Europe, which operates in Germany. Gestellpool Europe developed a service to aid customers in the glass and window industry to release reusable transport racks ready for collection, so that the return of these to the owner can be logistically planned and implemented.

The workshop concluded with the presentation of Glass for Europe current activities on flat glass stillages.
